    I hope they do not decline my card its took me ages to make decision what image to put on it.... If it gets declined ive chosen a back up one just in case.

    TBH I think the picture is most suited to Barclays branding... No doubt they don't have the same thought... :p

    See the background behind the Barclays logo? The entire card is that color on the generic version.

    I expect they will only do this for the contactless cards, so if you are not eligible for one of those (like me) you won't be able to get a personalised one

    It does not matter any debit card type can have a personalised debit card.

    However they appear to be very strict over which images you can have on them though, or am I being a typical MSER and not reading the T&Cs lol

    Could I have a photo on it I have taken of the Hills around Shap where I live? Or is that not allowed?
